Online video editing platform flixier.com has released a free content reuse guide. It offers a practical solution for content creators and marketing professionals who are facing a sharp decline in organic reach, especially on Facebook. According to newly shared data from Flixier, REACH has fallen by more than 60% over the past two years. This guide introduces a strategic approach. Reformat existing content on multiple social platforms to drive engagement and broaden your reach without starting from scratch.
As early as the summer of 2024, platforms like SocialInsider.io were reporting record organic reach rates. On average, Facebook posts reached just 2.6% of their followers. Even Instagram saw a better figure, a decline of 18%, sparking widespread concern among creators.
Reach hits creators violently despite the growth of their audience
Recent research on Flixier focuses on Facebook publishers, with viewers between 1-3 million followers. The results revealed a worrying pattern. Despite the growing number of followers (some above 20%), some publishers have seen traffic from Facebook drop by five-fifths of their previous volumes, which continued to plummet. Even posting consistent content gave me little relief.
“In this context, most senior managers are beginning to question further investment in organic social activities. He adds, “We need to streamline the creation of content to help influencers, content creators and marketing managers stay efficient and achieve KPI goals.”
Reuse content using AI: A smarter way to make it visible
Reuse includes updating or adjusting existing content for distribution on new platforms and expanding its scope and impact. However, while effective, the process takes time unless it is driven by AI.
Flixier emphasizes that artificial intelligence can simplify many of the most labour-intensive tasks of content, such as creating transcriptions, captions, and narration. By leveraging these tools, creators can maintain visibility online while saving considerable time and resources.
Flixier’s step-by-step guide will regain 60% of your reach. Reuse your content and reconnect with your audience through better medium choices and a good editing toolkit. The author outlines all the steps required to increase content reach by 60% on average.
